Abstract

For effective teaching and learning to take place, the paper calls for availability of a variety of instructional tools (power point, internet, video etc),and the instructor should be able to identify, select and organise the instructional materials in line with the concepts to be taught. In the light of the above, the paper also takes into consideration when planning classroom instruction, the learner, teacher and good time management in order to promote and enhance learning outcome. Furthermore, the paper stressed the need to preview media before actual class instruction and provide experts to service the media once in a while and a good source of energy to keep the media in good shape to enhance effective classroom communication.
